That scene from Secret life of walter mitty gave me chills.
Fucking amazing Movie.
Great, now I have to sell all my shit. Any of you lame adult men want 3 boards?

I responded to the article in a comment, but i seriously doubt it will get approved.
So i’m posting it here for posterity.
Your article has raised quite a discussion among the predominantly adult male electric skateboarders on the esk8.news forum.
Apparently adult men shouldnt skateboard
The idea that there is no greater injustice than being sideswiped by a skater is laughable and myopic, especially coming from a woman. Much greater injustices might include women not being paid the same for the same work men do, for example.
distracted pedestrians with headphones on looking at their phones while walking dead center of a sidewalk take up too much space.
Humans also weren’t born with makup and glasses and wearing flannel.
Adult women are often childish. We have enough toilet rag jounalism to keep us occupied now that we’re all huddled inside not doing things we enjoy because suddenly we’re concerned with what women like you think. Oh wait, we aren’t. Nevermind.
if you acknowledge its a sport, and that lots of people are engaging in it, than none of the other points you make are relevant. Maybe it’s really about the jocks after all. Maybe you were thrown into too many garbage cans in high school?
Skateboarding may not be sexy, that’s true. It also has nothing to do with dating or mating. But since you probably spend two hours every day in front of a mirror desperately painting your face to attract a mate, i can see how maybe trying to be sexy dominates most of your free time as well as your perspective.
Just don’t leave the house. Peril lurks around every corner, not just for esk8ers. Why, you could trip over your sexy shoelaces and faceplant into a rock on your way to pick up another frappuccino.
Perhaps they’ve hidden their opinion of dating skaters from you because they tire from suffering your insufferable perspectives. You probably don’t want to tell them you voted for Trump either.
Now you’re just making up bullets so you’ll have 10.
As a professional builder of high end custom electric skateboards, i take much offense at the idea that i would smoke cloves when there’s plenty of really good weed around. But if you insist that every adult should terminate any and all joy giving activities in favor of aligning themselves with your perspective of what an adult should be doing, which would seem to be aimlessly wandering through the woods nomming homecooked snacks likely containing kale or mustard greens or some other joyless non-sense, then allow me to introduce you to electric mountainboarding.

Serious question: isnt this a trolling site/article?
As it comes from a “Supposedly fem…website”
Edit: actually took the time to go through the article listings, yup it is. Carry on!
item 10: I was in a midlife crisis (nr 3) when I started eskating :D:D:D:D

Forgot to mention i regularly engage trolls. And yes, Jezebel is absolutely the antithesis of a feminist website.

Aren’t we giving far too much attention to someone that brushed by a skater once and wrote a rediculous article about it to blow off steam?

Sure, if she had kept it on her personal blog or facebook or wtf ever. But instead she got on stage and her act sucks, so we’re throwing tomatoes. Jezebal is a trash rag, but its a trash rag with significant reach. “just venting, its personal” rules no longer apply in that tier. She deserves whatever negativity she gets from this short of threats and harm.

Sure it’s a shitty thing to do and she could do with listen to some Taylor Swift but I don’t think throwing tomatoes is anymore productive than walking out of the theatre and skating home.
